Advanced Nuclear
The Advanced Nuclear projects will speed up the demonstration of advanced reactors through cost-shared partnerships with U.S. industry. These innovative nuclear technologies are ideally sized and designed to provide flexible electricity output and as process heat for a wide range of industrial heat applications as well as desalination and hydrogen production.
Advanced Reactor Demonstrations Program
Gen III+
Carbon Management
The Carbon Management portfolio contains three programs: the Carbon Capture Demonstration Projects Program, the Carbon Capture Large-Scale Pilot Programs, and Regional Direct Air Capture Hubs. These new programs will help accelerate the demonstration and deployment of carbon management technologies, supporting efforts to create good-paying manufacturing jobs, reduce pollution to deliver healthier communities, and reinforce America’s global competitiveness in the clean energy technologies of the future.

Hydrogen Hubs
The Regional Clean Hydrogen Hubs (H2Hubs) will kickstart a national network of clean hydrogen producers, consumers, and connective infrastructure while supporting the production, storage, delivery, and end-use of clean hydrogen.
Regional Clean Hydrogen Hubs
Industrial
The Industrial Demonstrations Program (IDP) will accelerate projects in energy-intensive industries and provide American manufacturers a competitive advantage in the race to lead the world in low- and no carbon manufacturing. This program will be a central driver in helping solidify a “first-mover” advantage for U.S. industry, bolstering its competitiveness globally for decades into the future.
